Everyone and their mysteriously literate dog has already recced this, but: " Be Sought Or Seeking (Or Found)" by crayola123 is amazing. Like--that's an absolutely fucking awesome Patrick characterization, right there. I would go so far as to say perfect, in fact. Everybody else is good too, and it's kind of angsty and fucked up and still has a happy ending! ( Read more... )

(recs) fob, (recs) recs

If you can't find anyone else, I'd be willing to tackle it... haven't written FOB for awhile but that doesn't disqualify me from beta work. :D acroamatica at gmail.

Totally does not disqualify you from beta work! I've got a couple of people down below, but I am intrigued by your red pen icon and may send it to you as well (in the next few days), if that's all right?

That is an amazing fic and I hadn't seen it recced anywhere else (kept meaning to do it actually.)

I could beta for internal consisteny. (I tend to get far too into betaing so I like having limits like that.) Email's in my profile.

Hey, so I'm full of fail and misspelled my own email address in my profile - it should be gryfinn (at) gmail. So, if you sent it already, please send again?

"Be Sought Or Seeking (Or Found)" by crayola123 is amazing.

I know, right? She posted the story and nobody commented for days, and I was all ????, because it's pretty long and really good and we've all been whining about how fic-deprived we are. Big bang is going to make fandom explode in spontaneous multiple orgasms when it goes live.

You're welcome to my beta services, such as they are. Which is to say that I can absolutely guarantee that you're a better grammarian than I, but I'm pretty awesome with narrative structure/internal consistency. If you haven't found anyone else, that is.

I didn't read it until you linked it; I couldn't remember if she was safe to read or not. And I STILL haven't commented. *facepalm*

I dunno. Only eight or nine people said they were writing FOB. I'm deeply saddened, as I tend to not read anything else. SHRUG.

Ha. Ha. I laugh in the face of grammar in this fic. I would love your help with the other things, though--I'm really bad at keeping track of stuff over 10K words. Expect a large attachment in the next few days, unless you don't mind using Google Docs?

Google docs is fine if it works better for
you--it makes no difference to me. Just let me know!

I suspect that bigbang is going to produce a ton of Panic fic--which is fine, of course. Lately I find myself wishing I could get into Panic, since they're stealing lots of my favorite authors, but those boys just do nothing for me. Oh, well.
